Stupid T, but overall, good game. Keep emotions in check, and you can still play a big role down the stretch Book.

BTW. I think it would take somebody solid like Smart to cause Booker to hit the floor that hard, but at first I thought he flopped
We were 53 before the game. Probably go to upper 40's. Still think we are safe regardless of WVU. We basically are getting credit for the KU game in the minds of the committee. The RPI is all computer, so it can't figure that in.
GO CYCLONES!!!

Anyone think Markel Brown is gone too? I can only hope, would love to have those 3 gone next year.
RPI is at 51. Win @ WVU and it should be at around 48. Loss moves it to around 54. An approximation.

Excellent win. Take care of business at WVU on Saturday and head down to Kansas City on a roll. KU and a shot at revenge awaits.
At least he followed up with a smart play to draw that charge, instead of fouling him to death.
I thought the game was called pretty well tonight by today's low standards. Even on the deadball technical ... on the replay it looked like Georges's contact may not have been as inadvertent as it first seemed to me.
Just wanted to drop in and say we looked some cowgirls in the eye and said "would you rather be with a man that has the power of a storm and looks like Fred Hoiberg? Or a bunch of ugly *** cowboys???" Needless to say, they made the right choice.
I love Niang, but looking forward to him having a year of experience under his belt next year. He's had a lot of dumb fouls this year. Frankly, the kid plays a little dirty, and gets caught...
I like the fire and tenacity, but hoping he can learn to reign it in just enough to avoid the aggression fouls. Either way, the kid brings a lot to this team, and he's gonna be fun to watch at ISU. One of my buddies is a huge KU and basketball fan in general. He is not looking forward to having to play against Niang next year.

Giving credit where credit is due..... I loved our defensive intensity in the 1st half. It got a little looser in the 2nd, and we made a few mistakes with sloppy fouls.
Booker also was a stud. I hope he plays like that the rest of the way out.

ISU really started giving them a lot of easy turnovers near the end as well as a couple of early in the shot clock off balanced contested threes! Here is what is interesting. ISU just gave them their worst defeat and their biggest margin of loss. GO CYCLONES!
Great Win by Freddie and our fighting Seniors and the rest of the guys.
Lets go to West Virginia and try to play our best and steal one on the road. If we dont we will just have to go to Kansas City and win our 1st Round game to look good to the ncaa committee.
Its great to be a Cyclone and be part of Freddie Ball.
